EXPLANATORY PREFACE 



This volume is a supplement to the "First Records of 
Baltimore Town and Jones Town 1729-17'.)7," and "Records 
of Citj' of Baltimore (City Commissioners) 1797-1'S13," pre- 
viously issued. The data here given should have been in- 
cluded in the foregoing volumes, as it covers the same period 
and ' 5 of the same general character. The records, however, 
were not discovered until after the first books were issued; 
hence this supplement is actually a part of the previous pub- 
lications ?iud should be read in connection with them. 

This work contains boundary' establishments of tracts, lots, 
streets and levels (or grades), which are not recorded in the 
volumes of 1905-6. The records are those of the City Com- 
missioners, the originals being in custody of the City Librarian. 
In order to avoid confusion it maybe well to note that the City 
Commissioners were not alone entrusted w'ith the duties of 
making establishments and grades. 

The records of a Special Commission 1728 to 1797; West- 
ern and Eastern Precinct Commissioners 1810 to 1817, which 
were engaged in the same work, will be published later, and 
should be consulted to exhaust the subject of early "estab- 
lishments," "grades," etc. 

The Special Commission referred to above should not be 
confus d with (temporary) special commissions which laid out 
certain streets. Legislative Acts show that sundry conniiis- 
sioners of this character were authorized, but their records are 
very meager. 

This printed copy has been made to conform to the origi- 
nals as nearly as possible. There was no effort to correct, 
revise or interfere in any detail.
